    Hi,

    I'm looking for a laptop to play diablo 3 and guild wars 2 along with just general everyday use.

    I was previously looking at the ASUS G Series G53SW-XN1 on newegg, but it's out of stock now.

    The ASUS A53SV-NH71 caught my eye recently for $779 on newegg.

    Here are the specs:

    Intel Core i7-2670QM 2.2GHz
    15.6" LED
    6GB DDR3
    500GB HD
    Nvidia Geforce GT 540M


    Anyone have any opinions on this laptop? I'm looking to buy a laptop within the next 2-3 months, and I am trying to decide whether or not I should just buy one now or wait for the ivy bridge to come out. Thanks in advance.
